Grits and Glamour!
Embrace the Grits and Glamour of your own lives with Lorrie Morgan and Pam Tillis at the Merced Theatre on March 21.
Formed in 2009, the Grits and Glamour tour is a “together is better” event. The show is only loosely scripted. Good-natured ribbing and off-the-cuff remarks are just part of the fun. They add tight harmonies to each other’s material, classic songs like Tillis’ “Maybe It Was Memphis”, and “Mi Vida Loca,” and Morgan’s “Something In Red” and “Except for Monday” as well as new and original music from more recent recordings. The ladies are backed by some of Nashville’s finest musicians and singers. After years of working solo, both artists find teaming up fresh and interesting.
“Although we’ve practically grown up together, running in the same circles and backstage at the Opry as children, it truly is a newfound friendship,” said Pam Tillis.
“We’ve known one another for years but over the last few years we’ve grown from ‘someone you know’ to having a real ‘got your back’ kind of friendship,” agree Lorrie Morgan.
The duo is currently delighting old and new fans across North America on their highly successful Grits and Glamour Tour. From the road to the red carpet, on center stage in the theater or under the spotlight in a honkytonk, these two women are comfortable in their high heels. Veteran recording artists and performers, they grace the country format with style, flair, and undeniable talent that is captivating and timeless.
Tickets are $49, $65, & $75 and are on sale online at: mercedtheatre.org, (209) 381-0500, or at the Merced Theatre Box Office, located at 301 W Main Street. Box Office hours are Tuesday – Friday from 1 p.m. – 5 p.m.
